TV kills boy
A toddler has died after a television apparently toppled over and fell on him.
The one-year-old boy from Heol Frank, Penlan, Swansea, was taken to the city's Morriston hospital following the accident but he later died. His parents, who have two other children, were thought to be from Sri Lanka and seeking asylum in this country.
Family friend Fadia Nuur said: "It is very sad. I spoke to the family and they told me the television had fallen on the baby.
"They are very upset. I have been up all night crying for them. I know the family well, they help take my family to school."
